Read this whole post if you are interested in the PIF. Muy importante!
So I know I've been a somewhat quiet lurker, and for that I am sorry but I'm here and watching over. So far, I have only seen a couple issues. None really major.
1) You guys need to mug up and take a damn selfie! That's 90% of the fun of this thread. Seeing who gets the box and putting a face to the avatars. See the post from
@VapingJunkie. That's how you PIF properly.
2) You guys need to TAKE MORE! If people put in 100ml worth of juice and then take out a 10ml the box is going to get large, fast. Even if flavors are too strong, the next time you go to "The Mart" buy a 2 dollar bottle of VG and cut that stuff down! I don't care, but take
.
3) I know you guys want some PIF loving, and after the current member has it, its coming back to me where I am going to split it up. It will be a regular PIF box. I have an idea to control this PIF shipping getting out of hand, but first I want to see what is actually in the box when it comes to me. One option is when I split it, I put it in a flat rate priority medium box. That locks the shipping at 12 bucks no matter the weight, as long as you can seal the box and it doesn't go over 75lbs, it ships. Tracking is included in the price and it forces everyone to keep the box a reasonable size. In fact, I'm fairly certain that is what I'm going to do.
Now about people getting antsy, the rules state you have 3 business days to ship it unless you notify us in the thread for a reason. Weekends, holidays, and zombie apocalypses don't count. Don't assume the worst in people, here at VU we should all be half full type of folk! In the most recent case, it was over a $20 shipping bill + labor day weekend + going back to school. We can cut a little slack there right?
So what are we going to do with PIF 1 (the current), PIF 2 (the totally new one I have the stuff for thanks to
@PondScum, and PIF 3 (the split of PIF 1).
When PIF 1 comes to me, I'm going to split it evenly. Then send out the split to the next in line for PIF 1 and contact a random number between 20 and 30 on PIF 1 list, who will be the start of PIF 3. For now those two lists are closed! This will give you all a nice short wait and being the originators, this gives you a nice short grab at them.
Now for PIF 2 the new box. I am going to open a new thread and ask for who wants it. I am going to give it until Monday, September 8th. ANYONE who is NOT on the current PIF list can enter. There are over 1000 posts between the 2 original threads and honestly that has been the major stopping point for me to sort through and get it going. It's simply too much to go through each post and see who said they want in. So for PIF 2, on the thread I create, just simply say you want in and that is the new list. As Rip would say, "Easy Peezy, Chicken Sleezy" or something like that.
I am going to order that gigantic box of Rayon. Debox it and bag it the heck up, toss it in a box suitable for USPS first class shipping and make a wick box. Anyone can get on this. Take as much or as little as you want. When its out, I'll just send a new box to the next one in line. The only thing you could PIF in that box is wicking material. You can ship a 12x12x12 box via USPS first class and as long as it doesn't go over a pound (you have any idea how much a pound of cotton actually is?) it ships that way. Once I have confirmed tracking of the box, I'll post that thread. All the wicking material that
@VapingJunkie sent for PIF will be going out in the real PIF boxes as intended, and their is a lot of it so you guys will get your hands on it that way as well.
Phew that was long, but hey this is what happens when an Italian from Jersey goes quiet for too long. It has to come out eventually!
